Usage
In a MIF file, all colors are expressed as a mixture of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. The ColorAttribute
statement identifies a default FrameMaker document color; the default colors are all reserved (specified by
the ColorIsReserved keyword) and cannot be modified or deleted by the user. A reserved default color can
have two ColorAttribute statements, for example:
<ColorAttribute ColorIsCyan>
<ColorAttribute ColorIsReserved>
A color tint must be based on an existing color. This has two implications:
If the base color doesn't exist in the document, black is used as the base color for the tint.
The color value statements (values for CMYK, color family, and ink name) are ignored when included in
a tint statement. However, FrameMaker writes out color value statements for a tint, even though they will
be ignored. To modify the color values of a tint, modify the color value statements for the base color used
by the tint.
